Melanie Fiona still cries when she thinks about her ex-boyfriend. He is the main reference in her R&B smash, the haunting ballad It Kills Me” “I hope he’s happy,” Fiona said with a laugh in a recent interview. The tune, which has spent its fifth consecutive week on top of Billboard’s R&B/Hip-Hop songs chart, is up for best female R&B vocal performance at Sunday’s Grammy Awards. Though other nominees include Jazmine Sullivan, Ledisi and Lalah Hathaway — it’s Beyonce’s rousing anthem “Single Ladies (Put a Ring On It)” that will be Fiona’s top competitor. “Single Ladies” is also up for song of the year. “I could say, ‘You know what, yeah, she’s going to win.’ And also at the same time, I could be like, ‘I had no idea I’d be Grammy-nominated,’” Fiona said. “If I don’t win the Grammy, that’s OK ’cause the company I’m in feels like a Grammy (win) already. And that’s Beyonce — like I have to pay a lot more dues before I get to Beyonce’s status,” she added.
